1 Introduction
The Fast Track ®3000 Series Timer (herein also referred to as the Timer) helps you operate a drive-thru
store more efficiently and profitably by tracking the progress of customer vehicles through the ordering
and delivery process. Management and staff can use this information in crucial ways to:
Analyze service time
Improve productivity
Set performance goals and incentives
Measure performance
Predict staffing requirements based on past experience
Compare shifts, seasons, and stores
The Fast Track PC Software (the Software) is an application that allows your computer to communicate
with your Fast Track ®3000 Series Timer (Fast Track ®Timer). The Software application allows a user to
use a PC as a remote console to operate/program or view the Fast Track ®Timer or download data for
viewing and analyzing. This manual describes how to install and use the Software application on your
personal computer and to communicate with your Fast Track ®Timer. The PC Software operates on a
personal computer (PC) using Microsoft Windows 95®or higher operating system platform.
The Software requires an interface between the PC and the Fast Track ®Timer. This interface may be a
cable connecting your PC directly to the RS-232 port of the Fast Track ®Timer, an Ethernet network
interface card (NIC) using a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN).
The Timer is a measurement instrument that is only as good as the sensors connected to it for vehicle
detection. Listed below are factors to consider when deciding which type of detection to use:
GROUND LOOPS are strongly recommended for use in drive-thru applications because:
They detect metal mass ONLY
Troubleshooting is fairly simple.
Sensitivity adjustments are easy.
They are NOT directly exposed to the environment, such as falling rain and snow, leaves blowing
in the wind, pedestrians, animals, etc.
Careless drivers cannot damage them by bumping into them because there is nothing for
careless drivers to bump into.
They usually last many years with trouble-free operation.
SONAR SENSORS are not recommended for use in drive-thru applications because:
They detect ANYTHING that passes in front of them, including but not limited to falling rain and
snow, leaves blowing by in the wind, pedestrians, animals, insects, employees hanging their
hands or food containers out the window, etc.
They are usually directly exposed to the environment and any movement in their field of view
activates the output, which effects whatever is connected to the output (drive-thru timers, POS,
order-confirmation systems, etc.
They are usually surface mounted and can be easily broken or misaligned by a collision from
careless drivers.
The initial material and labor costs of installing a sonar sensor are comparable to the initial costs
of installing a ground loop. In the very likely event a sonar sensor must be replaced long before a
ground loop must be replaced, the total cost of the sonar sensor will exceed that of the ground
loop.

1.3 General
The Fast Track ®3000 Series Timer operates automatically with a minimum of operator attention, updating
the data on its Activity screen through Remote Control and Remote Displays, and downloading regularly
scheduled automatic reports.
2 Principles of Operation
A fully functional Fast Track Timer system is comprised of several components:
Main Console
Remote Display (or LCD if using DTIS)
Cashier Window Loop (if applicable)
Pick-up Window Loop
Additionally, in order to function properly, the Fast Track Timer System relies on input from:
Customer Furnished Audio Communication System
Menu Board Loop / Detector
Figure 1 - Single Lane Example
Note: The Figure above shows an example of a typical single lane drive-thru. The Fast Track Timer can
virtually be configured for any other restaurant setup. (See Appendix)
Caution: Operating a one window Fast Track Timer in a two-window store without an event
measurement at the cashier window (first window), can result in inconsistent and inaccurate readings of
both line times and car counts. An event that is not measured during a cars movement through the drive-
thru lane distorts measurement of actual time between events and can lead to excessive Drive-Offs.
Having both, higher and lower than actual times can be recorded under the following scenarios.

2.1 Sample Normal Timing Sequence
The Main Console’s interface with the customer-furnished Intercom and Vehicle Detector allows the Timer
to detect a vehicle that has been greeted via Intercom upon arrival at the
Menu Board. Window Loops allow the Timer to detect the car’s arrival at and departure from
the cashier and service window and/or other detection points. For simplicity, the following sequence of
events assumes that there are Loops at the Cashier Window and Pick-Up Window (See Figure 1):
Event 1. A vehicle arrives at the Menu Board where the Loop detects its presence. A VEHICLE
PRESENCE SIGNAL is sent by the Vehicle Detector to the Main Console which starts the timing
sequence.
Event 2. An employee keys the Intercom microphone to greet the customer. The employee’s voice
generates a GREET CANCEL signal that is sent to the Main Console which records the time as the
GREET time.
Event 3. When the vehicle departs from the Menu Board deactivating the Menu Board Loop the
VEHICLE PRESENCE SIGNAL discontinues. The Main Console interprets the time as the MENU time.
Event 4. When the vehicle arrives at the Cashier Loop, a VEHICLE PRESENCE SIGNAL is sent to the
Main Console. The Main Console interprets the time as WAIT time.
Event 5. When the vehicle departs from the cashier's window deactivating the Cashier Loop the
VEHICLE PRESENCE SIGNAL discontinues. The Main Console interprets the time as the CASHIER
time.
Event 6. When the vehicle arrives at the Pick-Up Loop, a VEHICLE PRESENCE SIGNAL is sent to the
Main Console. The Main Console interprets the time as WAIT time.
Event 7. When the vehicle departs from the service window, deactivating the Pick-Up Loop, the
VEHICLE PRESENCE SIGNAL discontinues. The Main Console interprets the time as PICK-UP time.
Additionally the Main Console interprets the time as this customer's TOTAL Line Time.
Figure 2 - Events in the Drive Thru Lane
2.2 Multiple Vehicles
The Timer is capable of keeping track of up to 16 vehicles moving simultaneously through each drive-thru
lane. The Timer can track the progress of each vehicle independently, accurately noting when each car
moves onto or off a vehicle detection zone.

2.3 Electrical Power
The Timer’s electrical power, supplied by an external transformer, is always left on. The transformer is
connected to a 110 VAC power outlet.
WHEN POWER RETURNS AFTER ANY INTERRUPTION, THE FAST TRACK ® 3000 SERIES TIMER
TESTS ITSELF AND ANY ATTACHED REMOTE DISPLAYS.
When power is applied, the Remote Display(s) powers on and shows its numerical address. The Remote
Display(s) then shows digits counting down from 9 to 0 and beeps during the process, allowing you to
verify that the Display(s) is working properly. Each Remote Display then resumes displaying the elapsed
times and average times for its assigned event. When the timer has completed its boot sequence, the
timer will beep three times.
2.4 LCD Monitor (DTIS only)
If the customer has purchased a DTIS system, a LCD monitor will be required to show the necessary data
to store personnel. The data shown is configured on the 3000 series Timer by the installer following the
completion of the hardware installation.
2.5 Remote Displays
The Remote Displays are 5-by-9 inch modules with three illuminated digits visible on both sides. The
Displays show minutes and seconds to document the time each car spends during key steps in the
ordering and sales process. (When no cars are in the drive-thru, the Displays show the average vehicle
times during the shift or other appropriate time period.)
Figure 3 - Remote Display
A Fast Track ® Timer may have up to six Remote Displays, one standard plus up to five optional. The first
four (address 1- 4) show two types of data: 1) the elapsed time for the event assigned to the Remote
Display, continuously updated during the event; and, 2) the average time for the event computed over the
daypart, shift, day, week, month, or year to date (as selected by the user), after the car leaves the station.
The average time is re-computed after each car leaves the event assigned to the Remote Display, and is
shown by flashing numerals once the event station is no longer occupied.
One to Four Remote Displays May be programmed to:

Show the elapsed time for a selected event in progress.
Show the average event time for a selected time period (indicated by flashing mode).
Show the same information on more than one Display (example: one Remote for your cashier
and customers, and another for your cooks).
Communicate information through audible beeps (example: a car arrives at a station).
The fifth & sixth addressed Remote Display is a Special Percentage Remote that may be programmed to:
Show the percentage of cars that satisfy the A-grade target time on any selected event.
The optional Remote Display setting serves as a special percentage Remote Display that can be
used to monitor speed service, as well as to provide performance incentive for crewmembers.
The percentage Remote Display shows, in either green or red digits, the percentage of cars
satisfying the particular grade’s target time is below a percentage selected by the user; the
Remote Display’s digits will be red. If the percent is equal to or higher than the selected
percentage, the digits will be green. Only the two color Remote Displays have this capability
(older remotes are only a single red color). The percentage Remote Displays will display the A
target only, while the other Remote Displays 1 through 4 will allow you to specify any target grade
you wish.

2.5.1 Set Remote Addressing
Depending on what model of the Remote Display the data will be shown either in minute: seconds,
seconds only, or percentage. Time data will be displayed only during the hours the store is open. When
the store is closed, only a colon (:) is shown on the minutes: seconds Remote Display; seconds Remote
Display is blank; and percentage Remote Display shows the percent sign (%) and the number 0.
IF IT IS NECESSARY TO CHANGE A REMOTE DISPLAY’S ADDRESS,USE THE FOLLOWING STEPS:
Unplug the five-pin DINconnector from the top of the Remote Display and remove the display from
its mounting.
On the top of the Remote Display is a DIP switch access cover, push the cover to gain access to
the DIP switch. Set the switches according to the address you desire.
Plug the 5-pin DIN connector back into the Remote Display and verify that it has the correct
address.
If it is correct, disconnect the DIN connector, push the DIP switch cover back to its original
position, remount the Remote Display back onto the mounting brackets and then reconnect the
DIN connector.
Figure 4 - Dip Switch Positions
IMPORTANT! While Remote Displays that show the time of the same event can have either the same
or different addresses, if you want two or more Remote Displays to show the time of different
events, each display must be set to a different address.
The address of the Remote is the third digit only of the first number that comes up after you power on the
Remotes, e.g., for example, the address for 275 would be 5; the address for 005 would also be 5. (If the
Display’s address is 001, it will show the time that Remote #1 is programmed to show as indicated on the
Remote Display screen. If a Remote’s address is 002, it will show the timethat Remote #2 is programmed to
show, etc.)

2.6 LED Status Lights
The eight LED Status Lights on the Main Console show how customers are moving through your drive-
thru system. Labeled L1 through L8, these lights are activated when their corresponding stations are active
or occupied.
The pattern of the L1...L8 indicator lights on the Console lets you see at a glance where the cars are in your
drive-thru lanes. They also help you make sure that the Timer and its sensors are working together
properly.
Below is an example of what the LED Status Lights might indicate in a store with two drive-thru lanes (“A”
and “B”) and four monitored stations in each lane.
